I started out watching some YouTube channels that claim to be dedicated to keeping me private and secure with recent news but found that some of them have a history of advertising NordVPN. Those channels sometimes sounded like they were defending Apple then telling people if they don’t like the content then to just scram. Also, they would talk about custom roms for Android, then eventually when the channel got more viewers, the host makes a video advertising Google and why he now uses stock Google Android and saying that it’s advanced. These channels, I sometimes find, either have bots or loyal followers on YouTube and Reddit that are ready to gaslight someone for questioning them. They don’t hang out on other platforms like Odysee which is strange.

Personally, I like Techlore, NBTV, Firewalls Don’t Stop Dragons, Luis Rossmann, The Hated One, The PC Security Channel, ThioJoe, and (sometimes) Linux oriented channels like The Linux Experiment do some good privacy/security stuff too.
Tbh, i wouldn’t recommend some of the channels above
Still subscribed to techlore, but have a lot of questions about their stands on privacy etc
Also, Luis Rossmann is a really really great guy, love his work, but he is a little bit boring to watch or listen to

Have never heard of this guy
My problem with techlore is that they are ok with using google, apple, facebook
They pretty much promote proton, and kinda disencourage selfhosting
